Today I made cookies for the dog. Because I love my dog and she needed some cookies. In all the baking melee I have noticed that Lucy noticed that none of the treats were for her.
Can you believe it’s already December 16th??? The count down is on in my house! I have so much to do before Christmas! There are cards to write, gifts to wrap and school parties to plan. Plus I still have about 20 batches of cookies to make! Crazy? Yes, but it wouldn’t be Christmas without …
